I see kids who are virtually illiterate carrying your Bible around the school grounds every day and reading it every time they get a chance. Some of them had read it all the way through within a week of receiving it. Some of the older girls in the boarding house read it together with the younger girls every night before they go to bed. They come to school and love to tell me what they’ve been reading about and where they’re up to.

Of course you can’t make children find faith just as you can’t make them read something they don’t want too – well, not and expect them to love it. Written for children ages four and up, The Jesus Storybook Bible tells the one story underneath all the stories of the Bible and points to the birth of a child, the Rescuer, Jesus.

The Jesus Storybook Bible Advent Activity Book

She was silent, worried that voicing her opinion (again) would turn the tide against her. But then a young designer said, “I think Jago is right for this.” The Jesus Storybook Bible – now with British (rather than US) English spellings and sentences, is just such a reason for anyone who cares about nurturing reading and faith in primary school age children to get excited. While children from about 6 and above will be able to read the short, thoughtfully laid out and easy to follow stories for themselves, even children as young as 4 will love to have the 44 Old and New Testament tales read to them at bedtime and story-time. Experience what the excitement is about! Based on the award-winning Jesus Storybook Bible, the Jesus Storybook Bible Curriculum Kit is great for both Sunday School and homeschool use, geared towards kids ages 4-7. The Jesus Storybook Bible gives you the full colour, illustrated collection of 44 best loved Bible stories you need to introduce your children to a lifelong love of the wonders of the Bible. Each story, from The Creation, through Noah, Daniel and more, to Jesus and onward to the promise of a new and perfect Heaven, is retold in breathtaking colour and straightforward words ideal for children to hear, read and understand. Jago the illustrator, and Sally Lloyd-Jones (no relation to Martyn) the author, are a good pair. She brings the same creativity and sense of humor to her telling of the Bible’s stories.
